Looking at the number of photos I had for this post, I decided to split this post into 3 parts. So here's Part 3!
Apart from the many local food that I have tried, I like the oyster omelette (蚝仔煎) and Ay Chung Mee Sua (阿宗面线) the most! I eat them on every other day, it's so addictive! Taipei is all about food. While I was doing up my itinerary, I think more than half of the places that I wanted to visit turns out to be food-related; be it cafes, local food stores or night markets.
So without further ado, here it goes!
真的太多照片了，所以决定分成 3 部分。这是第 3 部分！
在许多的本地美食当中，我的最爱是蚝仔煎和阿宗面线！几乎可以天天吃都不觉得腻，超上瘾！台北就是个美食天堂。在安排这次的行程时，发现超过一半想去的地方都是饮食地点。
话不多说，let's go！
Wanhua District 万华区
Somebody Café 贰拾陆巷
No. 65, L2, Chengdu Road, Wanhua District, Taipei City
台北市万华区成都路65号2楼
Opening hrs: 10am-10pm
Subway: Ximen Station Exit 6 (line 5 blue)
I believe Somebody Cafe used to be quite popular many years back, but with the many hipster cafes around now, Somebody Cafe seems to be a little outdated. They are popular for their monochrome doodles, which can be seen around the cafe and as merchandises. However, they neither sell good food or coffee. So, you can actually give this place a miss if you don't have extra time.
我相信贰拾陆巷在几年前算有名。但近几年来，竞争激烈，该咖啡厅似乎已过时。他们著名于自画的黑白 “涂鸦”。在墙上，商品上都能看到。但，既没有好咖啡，也没有好食物。可以错过这！

I have heard a lot about them. They are probably the best in Taipei and it is a must-try. The mee sua is indeed rather satisfying! Not quite sure what goes into that bowl of goodness, but I could taste black vinegar, chicken shreds and bonito flakes, topped with pig intestine slices and fresh coriander.
来台北之前，常听说阿宗面线在台北是最好的，一定要试试。的确超好吃！不知里头有什么，但尝到了黑醋，鸡丝，干鲣鱼片，猪肠和香菜。

There is this really pretty cafe called 'Meat Up' at Ximending that I always pass by on my way to the metro station, and back home. So finally this morning I decided to check it out and no regrets! This fuss-free cafe serves just burgers and fruit-based drinks. I had a beef burger with customization of cheese sauce, sunny side-up and bacon. It comes with fries and coke. You can change the drink to any other drink and they will just minus NTD30 off from the bill. I ordered a strawberry mango juice and it comes served so prettily in ice blended form! The burger is really nice as well and I'm so glad I decided to check these guys out!
在西门町很漂亮的一间咖啡厅，叫 Meat Up。每天从我住宿前往西门町地铁站时，都会经过这间咖啡厅。所以某个早上，决定进去试试。Meat Up 的菜单非常简单 - 自配牛肉汉堡和果类饮料。我点了加了乳酪酱，太阳蛋和培根，外配薯条和可乐。把饮料改成了草莓芒果汁，来的竟然是冰沙版本，超好喝！汉堡也挺不错！

This cafe was so pretty! Just so you know, Skin Food is a South Korean skincare and cosmetics brand established in 1957. The main concept of the brand is to create products with nutritional values of food. The company slogan is 'beauty food for the urban sweety', and the brand is represented by a guardian angel symbolizing purity and goodness of their products. I ordered a strawberry smoothie and a cappuccino and the smoothie was served in a cute mason jar!

Woolloomooloo is a suburb of Sydney, Australia. This Woolloomooloo cafe in Taipei uses beans from Toby’s Estate, one of the top coffee roasters in Australia. The coffee was good and I really love the design and ambience of the place, giving off an Australia cafe-style vibe.
Woolloomooloo 其实是澳大利亚悉尼的一个区域。这个台北的 Woolloomooloo 咖啡厅采用了澳大利亚顶尖咖啡烘培公司之一，Toby’s Estate 的咖啡豆。咖啡相当不错，也很喜欢咖啡厅充满澳大利亚风格的感觉。

35F Starbucks 35楼星巴克
No. 7, 35F, Section 5, Xinyi Road, Xinyi District, Taipei City
台北市信义区信义路5段7号35楼
Opening hrs: 7:30am-8pm (Mon-Fri), 9am-7:30pm (Sat-Sun)
Subway: Taipei 101 Station Exit 4 (line 2 red)
This Starbucks branch is strictly by appointment only and no slippers and shorts are allowed. There is also a minimum spend of NTD200 per pax with a fixed allocated time of 1.5hrs. A trick that I learnt online was to be the last to enter the lift, so that I ended up being the first to exit the lift and to reach the cafe. Everyone would want to grab a window seat so fastest fingers first! I was also the first to make my order while the rest were busy looking around. Everyone only started queuing after I have received my order. So the ones that queued at the back waited for quite some time. While everyone was queuing, I use this time to take photos of the scenery and the cafe as it looks quite empty with all the rest of the people queuing up. A pity was that it’s always cloudy and hazy during this cold season, so sunset wasn’t really obvious.
世界唯一一个需要预约才能进，短裤拖鞋不允许的星巴克。每人抵消台币 200，只或许待最长 1.5 小时。在网上学到了这点，不要着急，等最后一个进电梯就能第一个离开电梯到咖啡厅选好位子。大家都会抢坐窗位，方便看风景。在大家忙着东张西望时，我赶紧抢先点餐，所以食饮都非常快到。其他过后才陆陆续续的前往点餐，排在后面的都等了相当久。称大多数人在排队时，我开始到处拍拍。空着的咖啡厅，拍起来相比比较好看。可惜的是，乌云密布的天使日落没那么清晰。
